Can anyone at LPI confirm this ?
I can--except the part of Anselm's notes about "obvious announcement" ;-) Generally, speaking we rotate questions periodically sometimes a few times in a year. Objectives are revised every 2.5 years while exams are entirely renewed/rewritten (new JTA, new objectives, etc.) every 5 years. However, this is an exam development procedure or standard rather than an outright policy. Technology change, industry input and other factors may influence exam revisions or rotations. For example it may be possible that some of the LPIC-3 specialty exams may have different rotation/revision cycles. Hope this helps! scott -- Scott Lamberton Director of Communications Linux Professional Institute http://www.lpi.org [email protected] +1-905-269-0862 _______________________________________________ lpi-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://list.lpi.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lpi-discuss
